Abstract

The embodiments are a method, a system and an apparatus for implementing an omnidirectional vision obstacle avoidance, and a storage medium. The method for implementing an omnidirectional vision obstacle avoidance includes: transmitting a trigger signal to an image capture device, to trigger the image capture device to capture image signals; combining the image signals to obtain combined image data; disassembling the combined image data to obtain disassembled image data; and visually processing the disassembled image data to acquire a visual image. Based on the technical solutions in the present invention, a multi-lens access problem of existing aircrafts during omnidirectional vision obstacle avoidance is resolved and image processing efficiency and performance are improved.
